Allotments 4 All

I noticed yesterday that some of my red baron onion sets that I put in about a month ago (I know mad sunny moment!) are poking through the surface.  There are no shoots and the onions look just the same size as when I planted them - which isn't surprising as it's been horrid since I put them in.  I felt gently to see if they were anchored and they seemed to be - should I just leave them breaking the surface or dig them up and plant them deeper?

No amanda21, leave them alone. They are OK

Yes i agree with Mike,- leave well alone Amanda,they will be fine.

amanda21,

stop fiddling with them!

Leave them, they just haven't had a chance to grow yet.

*slaps hand to stop it reaching out and fiddling.....*

Thanks - glad that's where they should be!     ;D

Can one replant very small onions from last year?  :-\

Probably not, I suspect they'd just bolt. I always have problems with this in the first year; I wouldn't try growing them on into the second!

Shallots from last year ok ..Onions No they will go to seed ,,Cheers Jim
